Exploring Career Directions

Wendy Frese came to Richland College as she began to work through what her next steps in life might be. She needs to decide if she will continue in her long-standing career in education or move to a new field. She found plenty of support at Richland College, which is part of the Dallas County Community College District. As part of the Plus 50 Initiative, the college offers courses and classes geared to the needs of the plus 50 job-switcher. She found a lot of resources to help her with networking and opportunities for help. After finishing some workshops, she is planning to take credit courses.
